How Well Do You Communicate About Sex? Take the Quiz

What Does Being a Good Sexual Communicator Actually Mean?

Good sexual communication means not only being able to communicate your likes and dislikes when it comes to sex outside of a sexual context, but also being able to express yourself during the act. 

‍

Whether you’re one of the lucky few who's received a proper sex education, or you’re someone who’s learned by doing, sexual communication is a skill. And like any skill, it requires practice. Even if you’re in a long-term relationship and feel you already know the ins and outs of your partner and lines of communication flow with ease, people and relationships will always evolve, and difficult conversations may still arise. 

‍

Just look at the couples in House of Lustery Season 3. Put four couples in a villa, add new experiences, relationship challenges, and plenty of opportunities to explore their desires, and suddenly communication becomes very real. From talking about boundaries to navigating jealousy and opening up about what they want, the couples are constantly figuring out how to communicate with each other as their relationships evolve.

So, if your monogamous partner of 10 years woke up one day and told you they wanted to explore opening up the relationship, how would you respond? Or if your “heterosexual” male partner told you they were curious about being intimate with other men, what space would you provide for their desire?

There are no right or wrong answers; this is only a mini quiz and not a definitive measure of your communication skills. It’s designed to support you in reflecting on where you might be able to improve your practice. Being a good communicator in general, especially when it comes to sex, isn’t about being perfect. Instead, it’s about having the capacity to navigate tough conversations with openness and empathy.
